I rely on gossip to save the country

Chapter 103 Selling oneself to bury one's father, what a familiar plot

Fan Liao: ………, shouldn’t their focus be on the fact that they can’t defeat the Tianji Pavilion? How did it become? Xuantian’s beard?

Mu Jin: ………… Their master’s eccentric personality makes it a little hard for them to react.

Xuantian: ………Can he be blamed? His beard has its own ideas and wants to jump out. What can he do?

"Let's not worry about my beard for now. What should we do with the Tianji Pavilion?" Xuantian didn't care at all. Let it stick up. There are no outsiders here anyway.

Xie Chuyue sat back in her original position, rubbed her face, and began to think, [System, if I remember correctly, this Tianji Pavilion belongs to my second brother, right? ]

System: [Yes, host, what do you want to express? ]

Xie Chuyue: [It’s not the system. Think about it, he is my second brother. I can’t go to see him. If I do, he will know the power I have. If I go, it will be bad if he recognizes me.]

System: [Host, you have to build up your power, so you two will face off sooner or later. There is no way to avoid it.]

Xie Chuyue: [I know, don’t worry about this, let me think about it first.]

The three of them stared at their master in a daze, sometimes frowning, sometimes pulling their hair, with a variety of expressions on their faces.

After a while, Xie Chuyue came out of her thoughts and looked at the three people and said, "Let's do this for now. Don't confront them head-on. For everything, we should do it secretly. The Pavilion Master of Tianji Pavilion is upright in his work, so let's use some shady tactics and see what he can do to us. If there is really no other way, I will show up again."

When the three heard this, they knew that Xie Chuyue had no good ideas, so they nodded in agreement.

In order not to attract other people's attention, the three of them left Wangyou Pavilion one after another, and even changed their clothes.

Xie Chuyue stayed for a while and then left.

She bought a string of candied haws and a few candy figures on the street.

While walking on the street, Xie Chuyue ate the candied haws after finishing the candy man. After taking a bite, she almost yelled out because it was so sour, "Pah, it's so sour, the chef's skills are not up to par."

People passing by: ………Tanghus is sour to begin with. If it’s sour, you shouldn’t eat it. Why do you insist on eating it even though it’s so sour? And after eating it, you insist on complaining, as if you’re sick.

Everyone just complained in their hearts.

Xie Chuyue didn't walk far when she saw a little girl in white linen clothes and a white flower on her head. There seemed to be a dead body in front of her. There was also a sign next to her that read, "Selling my body to bury my father!"

At this moment, three ladies came from not far away, accompanied by their daughters and sons.

Xie Chuyue was eating candied haws, her expression twisted with sourness, but she did not forget to complain to the system, "Just wait and see, a hero will appear soon to save the beauty."

As soon as she finished speaking, the son of one of the ladies, who was dressed gorgeously and was a handsome man, saw the sign that said "Selling myself to bury my father" and seemed to feel pity for him. He said to his mother, "Mom, this girl looks like a filial daughter. How about we buy her?"

The lady was reasonable and waved her hand, "Go ahead. The girl looks pitiful. After all, the dead are the most important. Let the dead rest in peace first."

When the young man heard this, he walked towards the stall and asked, "Miss, how much silver?"

The little girl who was kneeling beside her father heard the voice and looked up to see a young man looking at her with a smile. The little girl immediately lowered her head and said, "Sir, it's ten taels. Are you willing to buy my daughter? My daughter can cook, wash clothes, and clean."

Without saying a word, the young man took out a silver ingot and handed it over.

Xie Chuyue: [Tsk tsk tsk, what a fool! I gave away ten taels of silver without even saying so. If it were me, I would be so hurt.]

System: [You are stingy, they call it truth, kindness and beauty. ]

Xie Chuyue: [Tsk! ]

After hearing this, all the ladies and gentlemen looked around and had the same thought in their minds: the little princess must be nearby, otherwise how could they hear her thoughts?

As it turned out, there really was Xie Chuyue sitting at a stall not far away, with her legs crossed, eating candied haws, and watching them.

Everyone...why is she everywhere?

The man ignored Xie Chuyue and when he turned to look at the woman, he heard Xie Chuyue complaining again.

Xie Chuyue, [Look, look, what did I say? The classic hero-saving-beauty scene appeared. Then the young master bought the girl, and the girl buried her father. After that, she went back to become the young master's personal maid. After a while, she became the young master's maid, and then she became a concubine. You can imagine what happened after that.]

Everyone: ………Your summary is quite accurate.

One of the ladies looked at the girl instantly, her eyes full of coldness. Although she did not completely believe what Xie Chuyue said, she was also on guard.

Thinking about whether to pull your son back and then leave?

His action confused Xie Chuyue: [Wait, what is the lady going to do? How can she take back the money that has been taken out? She just promised her son that she could go and rescue him. ]

The lady was about to extend her hand, but it stopped in mid-air.

System: [A woman in seclusion has a lot of thoughts. Maybe the lady thinks the girl is pretty and doesn’t want her son to buy her.]

Xie Chuyue tugged at a strand of hair that had fallen on her shoulder and said in confusion, "Actually, if you bought it, just consider it as giving away ten taels of silver, or doing a good deed. There's no need to bring it into the mansion."

When the other ladies heard this, they silently tugged at their friends and said, "Forget it, just consider it as alms."

Hearing this, the lady nodded and tugged at her son, saying, "Explain to her that today's money loss is a way to ward off disaster. Consider the silver as a gift to her."

Then, the lady felt uneasy again and said, "Don't go, I'll go."

The lady knew her son well. Was he kind-hearted? Maybe he was fooled by the girl, so she walked over first, looked at the girl and said, "Consider this silver as a gift from me to you today. Everyone has times when their family falls into trouble. Take the silver and bury your father, then live a good life. You don't have to come to our house to be a slave or maid."

The little girl, who had accepted the silver, heard this and her round eyes were instantly filled with tears. "Madam, do you despise me? I know everything. And my father taught me not to accept rewards without merit, so I can't accept your silver for nothing. If you don't want to buy me, please take back the silver."

"We have no shortage of servants in our house." The lady was obviously a little angry.

But they had given out the money and could not take it back. But at this moment, her son who had been taken advantage of came over again.
